The answer

The method of dividing the inheritance cannot be determined until the heirs are precisely enumerated. Based on the assumptions presented, the husband inherits one-fourth due to the presence of a lineal descendant, the daughters inherit two-thirds, and the remainder goes to the full brothers or paternal half-brothers. Maternal half-brothers do not inherit due to the presence of a lineal descendant. If some brothers are full brothers and others are paternal half-brothers, the remainder goes only to the full brothers. The husband's affliction with Alzheimer's disease does not negate his right to inheritance; rather, it is preserved for him, and his guardian expends it on his behalf.
